There is no one way to raise a child. Each child is unique and can vary in so many ways in abilities and behaviour from others in their group. Ramgopal Vallath, indebted to his own parents for an upbringing that has helped him overcome great challenges and difficulties, set out to meet numerous parents to work out some common guidelines that could help groom a child. This book is the result. As with his previous bestselling book, From Ouch to Oops, this too is bound to reach out and move its readers, and leave lessons of lasting use in what is one of the most important tasks a parent undertakes: raising a child to be a healthy, resilient, positive adult.
I really enjoyed this book! It talks about the small things in parenting that most people don’t usually think of as important—they’re just seen as normal, everyday stuff. But over time, those little things actually make a big difference.
Each chapter has some practical tips on different aspects of parenting and how they can impact the future. It’s not the kind of book you read just once. At first, some points might seem a bit general, but the more you think about them, the more you realize how meaningful they are.
I’d definitely recommend reading it more than once—maybe whenever you feel like you need some advice or even as a yearly tradition.
A wonderful book about parenting. Touches all the aspects of parenting in a short concise manner along with examples. This book not only teaches parenting but the way any human should be.
Very well said by author RamG Vallath ,active parenting is not a great recipe since there aren’t standard ingredients to it since each child is unique and needs to be handled differently. This book is a compilation of many interviews, self experience, different challenges faced by number of parents, researching child psychology, neurology, two years of extensive research and upskilling because parenting is not just one person’s experience.
Parenting is a long term plan, a child needs guidance from a parents at each and every stage of its life. Author while designing the book also took care of the fact that today’s parenting is a bit more complex compare to two decades back. Disruptive technologies, unlimited information availability, global communication network have brought an immense change in current parenting.
I like the fact that the author has shared a lot of examples from real life to illustrate a model for parenting based on surveys, interviews, research and personal experience. It’s a reader friendly book as I felt a two way communication while reading this book. As a parent myself I could even relate to many instances and understood my weaknesses since I was also a first-timer and experimenting myself. I believe any parent who has a child below the age of fifteen can benefit from it more likely although the tips and examples have spread out across children of all the age groups.
Definitely a must read book to become an active parent.

Author penned down this book with many stories of different personalities which talks about many perspectives and also makes it more engaging. He also mentioned a line that "In order to raise a confident girl child, the father must treat the mother with respect and as an equal" this means children learn what they saw and everyone Knows's that parenting is not an easy task so you need to have more patience, more understandable, more lenient and this book taught you all these. If you're already a parent or going to be so this book helps you to be a good mentor of your own child and keeps your parenting on right track.

Being a mother, I know how difficult it is to handle my daughter with technique. There was time when we use to listen to our parents without doing any argument but today's generation is different. They want answer of all questions. Why no mumma?? Why you always tell me not to do this and etc. It's really a roller coaster ride in which they are ups and downs when kids will not understand our point of view and think that we are being really strict. We have to understand them and explain them in a way that they shouldn't feel they are wrong. This book is all about parenting and how to handle kids in each situation. The author has shared some really nice techniques which I am going to experiment with my daughter. The way author has written about his experiences with his kids, I felt like I was there with my daughter as most of situations I have faced and can relate to it. The book will help each parents bringing up their child in a better way like there is mention of important skills with which we can prepare kids mentally to face difficult situation and gain confidence. The author has shared many personal and his friends experiences which were helpful. I love his perspective about kids. He believes in gender equality and each and every kid is unique. You can't compare two kids and can't expect the same reaction from each kid which is really true. There is different technique to deal with each kid. You need to be patient and handle them in a way that it will not create negative impact on them.There are so many things which as parents we can learn from this book.
At the end of the chapter, the author has mentioned the key points for active parenting which is really helpful. In the end, I would say it's a really helpful and informative book.
Parenting has always been a tough job, nowadays it has become more complicated. Parents don't think about long term consequences of actions they take now to just not get disturbed during their work by their kids. They often switch on TV or give them smartphones to play games so that the child us busy and they don't have to bother about getting disturbed, but this only makes the child an addict to smartphones and will have really bad consequences.
RamG Vallath, in his book mentions many of the problems that arises due to wrong methods of parenting, one of the most disastrous things that are happening now is the school students committing suicide. If you're a kid you'll relate to the thing that we always think that our parents don't understand us and the parents need to understand that times have changed and their parenting methods also needs an upgrade. This book is a guide towards the much needed way of parenting in today's situation. How to make your child a positive, kind, humble and a social person. How to make your child motivated enough that he has the courage to overcome the hurdles in their lives and not be afraid of failure.
The book has many tales from the author's life, his experiences and many more small examples that we often get to see in our society. We don't often see a problem when just to make their kid stop crying parents buy them an expensive toy, chocolate or anything they demand. This book shows us that this could be also an important problem.
The book is a must-read for the parents no matter they are parents of 4-month kid or 15 year old kid. And for even the people of age 21-25 because this book has some important qualities that we can still inculcate in our lives to make it more happy and successful.
•Children are like seeds that can be molded into good plants if parenting is done correctly. Or they would never be able to regain control of their lives; nowadays, parenting is an art. Not every parent can manage their children's curiosity while still keeping their ignition on. Let's learn about parenting formulae by reading RAMG VALLATH's ACTIVE PARENTING. The title and text are the only things on the cover page. The subject matter is parenting and children.
•The author included some crucial approaches and recommendations to be applied when providing your child with healthy growth in this creation. He underlines the point that each child is unique, and the way they interpret the world might be difficult for parents to comprehend. This book is a combination of various interviews, personal experiences, and obstacles that many parents confront when growing their children to the highest degree. The author attempted to show that because each child is unique, we cannot constantly follow the same patterns to raise them. We must remember their individuality so that as kids grow up, they can face the uncertainties of life.
Give it a shot and learn about the methods that may be useful not only for you but also for your children so that they can look for the answers afterward.
•The author has picked an excellent topic because today's youngsters live a different lifestyle than their parents did. And, as the title indicates, after reading, parents will become more involved in their children's lives. The author used a real-life example to show a parenting paradigm that is based on a wide range of experiences.

Thanks to author for the review copy.
Genre - Family & Relationship, Psychology
Ratings 4.7/5
Active Parenting: How To Raise Children With Boundless Potential is an amazing book which will work you as a guide in your parenting journey, yeah it’s not 100% full proof but no book can be in this case. Humans are very complex so are relationships beat any relationship but things wrote by authors in this books will definitely help you in navigating through your parenting journey.
Author has also shared lots of examples from real life which makes it’s more relatable and easy to understand for any reader.
It’s not one of the book which you should finish it easily and just get done with it but to read it throughly and understand it properly and you should also try and test the suggestion and learning given by author.
Ramgopal Vallath is a motivational speaker and his life is also a chapter in a CBSE 8th standard book. Which shows the credibility of this person.
If you’re a parents you will definitely find lots of learnings for you which will help you become good parents and also it will teach you how you can be more active parents so I highly recommend this book to all the parents out there.
🍁It's all in the values, yes values are so so important when it comes to nurturing a little human who doesn't understand what's right and what's wrong. I feel so blessed to be able to read this book, when I started it I felt this is one of those books that's filled with multiple advices that we all know already but that's not the case, this is such a well researched book that will help the readers to understand how important it is to raise a kid in the correct way, but do we really have a correct way or there are multiple ways that might work for different parents and different kids? You will understand that once you pick this wonderful read. . . I was extremely happy because the author not only talks about what should be done along with highlighting reasons to showcase why it's correct but also talks about what should be avoided in a way that might hinder a child's growth.
Divided into 11 major parts the author makes sure what he really wants to focus on and one step at a time he takes the readers on a journey that's filled with learnings and a lot of experiences, short stories and real life incidents that truly help. I also loved how the key points summarise everything so well! I definitely enjoyed it and I will recommend it to everyone, not just for parents but also for curious readers. Go for it. .

Name of the Book- Active Parenting:How to Raise Children with Boundless Potential
Author- RamG Vallath
Ratings: 4/5
The best way to predict a child's future is to help create it and this book will teach you how to create it. I got this book for my aunt who is a mother of 7years old kid. But before giving it to my aunt, I thought of reading it myself because of its interesting title. A child's behaviour is mostly unpredictable (especially small kids who are of 5-10years old) and this book will teach you how to handle kids in every situation. The author has shared some really great techniques to handle children. “There is no one way to raise a child. Each child is unique and can vary in so many ways in abilities and behaviour from others in their group." This book contains ideas and examples about managing difficult situations with children.
I absolutely loved this book and hence recommend it to each and every parent ❤️
WHAT I LOVED ABOUT THE BOOK- ❤️I absolutely loved the fact that the author has included a section called “Key Points" after every chapter. ❤️ The language is simple and one can understand easily. ❤️The author has explained everything amazingly.
This book is not just a guide on how to become an active parent but it talks about authors own life experiences and tales from some other peoples life too.
How beautifully she narrated by sharing real life experience of explaining the concept of trust to Advay her own son, Stories narrated by authors Achan or by Dr. Velumani’s father that delivered great experiences and helped in increasing their neutral connections and brain development, Integrity is honesty which was inculcated in Rekha Modi’s upbringing who later became a successful COO at HSBC world wide and many more.
Rightly said this is a dual book where on one hand it talks about being a good parent by making your kids successful and on the other hand it becomes a self help guide which enriches ones own life. This book is not age specific hence the parenting tips which are tried and tested vary from age to age. Author RamG Vallath also offers a wide variety of practical tools for understanding the core needs of children. I believe author has addressed so many topics close to my own personal story too.
The author has connected aptly with their readers even as he helped us to connect with our children. It’s definitely a must read book.
How difficult it can be to raise children…well it’s quite a task. Because it is how you mold them would decide their shape in life. Parenting is not an easy job to do especially in today’s era where our social lives are so interdependent. It requires the right amount of love, support, and control. It is an evolving process, that develops and changes as the child grows. There is no perfect recipe for a good parenting style as every child is unique and is needed to be nurtured differently.
Active Parenting, a book by RamG Vallath, tells the ways to understand a child and develop a parenting style that is unique to a child. The author has beautifully summarized and illustrated his life earnings of being a parent. He not only shares his own experiences as a parent but cites many real-life instances that made the book more interesting and reliable. RamG has emphasized the importance of treating children with the same respect and empathy that you wish to receive. They are not a project to be handled as a procedure instead he puts pressure on enjoying parenting with them.
The author has willingly kept the language lucid and has used coherent vocabulary to make the book user-friendly. Storytelling is another thing that makes this piece more engaging.

Book: Active Parenting: How to raise your child to be positive
Author:
Review: We see today, that kids tend to feel a lot of pressure and stress, even from a very early age. The competitive world today, is getting to every body, not even children are spared. In an environment like this, it becomes important for the parents to make sure that their child is happy, healthy and optimistic.
Active Parenting, by RamG Vallath is a right step towards trying to understand your child in the world today. Parents aren't usually the one kids confide about their stress, especially in our country. This book, may help you change that, by giving you a good understanding of how to approach your child.
The author writes about how being patient and understanding is very crucial and for that it is important to listen to your child and assess their problems with open mindedness. I truly believe that parents could really benefit from this book, and it would be a right direction in shaping their kids into adults with positive attitude.
Author penned down this book with many stories of different personalities which talks about many perspectives and also makes it more engaging.He also mentioned a line that "In order to raise a confident girl child, the father must treat the mother with respect and as an equal" this means children learn what they saw and everyone knows's that parenting is not an easy task so you need to have more patience,more understanable ,more lenient and this book taught you all these.If you're already a parent or going to be so this book helps you to be a good mentor of your own child and keeps your parenting on right track. Thanks for your time.
Parenting is an ability that can never be compared, judge and copied but it can always be improved by focusing on child's daily activities and their decision making capacity. And in this book author has beautifully described about almost everything that common parent's life that impact their children in many ways, he took the example of his own life that how his parents supported him to cope up with life trouble and different types of parents, parenting techniques and amazing real examples. This book is gem if you are growing parents and looking to improve yourself as parent Active Parenting will help you in self realisation and development. I give it 5 star as it is a must read.
Maybe it's a cultural difference, but some chapters feel dated. Respect for house staff, let girls know they can do anything,... It's not really a practical book either. It's mostly a list of values to implement in your parenting.
